Up for auction is this "Exceptionally Rare" 1995 Porsche 928gts. This was the final year of production for the Porsche 928gts. Ferdinand Porsche (owner of the company) reportedly drove one of these cars. The color is "Polar Silver." It has a black leather interior. It also has an electric sunroof. There were only 77 1995 Porsche 928gts cars produced. This car is Production #13 of 77. It is Serial #73. Only 9 of the 77 cars produced came in the color "Polar Silver." Only 6 of those 9 cars came in with the Automatic Transmission. It has 72871 miles. The engine is a 345 HP, 5.4L 32 valve V8. This car is in "amazing" condition and has a lot of extras you won't find on any other Porsche 928gts.

This car comes with Chromed Techart wheels (Germany) & centercaps. The front wheels are 8.5 x 18. The rear wheels are 10.5 x 18. They were both purchased and professionally chromed by "Wheel Enhancement" out of California. The wheels have four (4) Michelin Pilot Sport wheels on them with less than 600 miles on them. The front tires are 225/40 ZR18's. The rears are 295/30 ZR18's. The rear tires are very wide and completely underneath the body with no rub issues on the front or rear. This gives the car a very powerful and menacing appearance. It is a very cool look! I get compliments on this car every time I take it out in public.

The soundsystem includes a Alpine CDA9885 radio/CD player, and it is set up with an IPOD connecter hidden in the center console. All 10 of the factory speakers have been upgraded to MB Quart (German) speakers, along with a MB Quart Subwoofer. It comes with a Soundstream Van Gogh (VGA800.5) Amp that powers the system. This is an 800 Watt 5 Channel Amplifier, that has a very low Total Harmonic Distortion Level of .02%. This is the cleanest and the most crisp sound I have ever heard from a car stereo. The stereo has a complete system of MB Quart Crossovers set up to get the right frequencies to the right speakers. The MB Quart Subwoofer, MB Quart Crossovers, and the Soundstream Amp are all housed in the rear hatchback area in a professional cabinet that matches the black leather in the vehicle. This professional cabinet includes a discrete switch for black light illumination if desired. All of this was professional installed. No corners were cut, because I wanted it perfect. The car has also been equipped with a discrete (hidden) cable for connection of your radar detector to the visor.

Both factory front seats have been replaced with Black Leather Recaro adjustable seats with lateral and thigh support. They were just installed last year, and still look brand new. The car has been driven less than 500 miles since they were installed. They are "much" more comfortable than the original factory seats, and much sportier looking as well. They are fully adjustable. Recaro makes the best leather seats, and that is why I selected them for this car. The entire leather interior of the car is in "beautiful condition."

Mechanically, the car runs exceptionally well. It is very smooth with powerful throttle response. The "Timing Belt" (a critical element of these cars costing about $1000.00 parts + labor) was just replaced in June of last year. It has less than 500 miles on this new timing belt. The car battery was replaced in June of last year. This car has been "very well" taken care of. It has always been garaged, is rarely driven, and has been regularly maintained via service from Jones' Autowerks, Inc. (in San Antonio, TX). I have receipts documenting maintenance. I have owned this car since 2004. This vehicle can be inspected prior to sale at the buyers discretion to verify the condition of the car. The oil was changed less than 500 miles ago (Castrol GTX 20W50). There are "no" oil leaks, which speaks to the excellent condition of this car mechanically, because most 928's do leak some oil. The AC blows cold.

This is the nicest Porsche 928gts that I have ever seen, inside and out. The Porsche 928 "gts" is a very rare car anyway, but the 1995 928gts is the rarest and most desirable of all. It was the final year of production and represented the ultimate refinement of this model. Again, there were only 77 of these cars built, and this one was #13. I am selling this car because I am getting older and need to downsize my car collection. This car is in superb driving condition, and it is ready to go and drive "now." Maintenance is up to date.

Thanks for looking. If you have personal questions, please let me know. I am very proud of this car, and if you are looking for a Porsche 928gts, you won't find one better, as the pictures illustrate. Pictures of the excellent black leather interior on this car will be posted shortly.

Porsche Cayman GTS in track battle with 996 GT3

Wed, 09 Jul 2014

Here's your tough question of the day: Would you rather drive a new Porsche Cayman GTS or a slightly older, 996-era Porsche 911 GT3? Certainly, both cars have their plusses. The Cayman is the more modern proposition, sure, but the GT3 is, well, a GT3. So yes, it's a tough decision.
If you're one of the lucky souls that have to make that choice, then this video from Evo should prove pretty helpful. It's a track battle, starring Jethro Bovingdon with a new GTS and an old GT3.
Calling the GTS "fantastically agile" and "fast, but it's also hilariously good fun," Bovingdon bangs home a solid lap time of 1:05.2 before switching to the GT3. It's remarkable to see just how dated the 996-generation 911 looks after viewing the newer Porsche, and from where we sit, it's further proof that the old car's headlights are something that's best forgotten. Styling qualms aside, though, can the GT3 keep up with its racy younger cousin?

Porsche gives GT3 owners extra year of warranty, new engines in production April 22

Sat, 12 Apr 2014

While the auto industry reels from massive recall after massive recall, Porsche has quietly been working on a fix for an issue that's forced owners of the new 911 GT3 to park their track-ready rockets for fear of an engine fire. Thanks to a leaked letter from Porsche to a GT3 owner (which has been certified as real), we now have an idea of just where the German brand is at with the fix.
On April 22, Porsche will begin production of a new batch of GT3 engines for the 785 affected models across the globe. As you'll recall, the original issue rested with a screw joint that could loosen the connecting rod. The new engines have an "optimized piston rod screw connection," that should keep the connecting rod in place. Once technical validations are completed, production will kick off and new powerplants will be shipped around the globe for owners of the troubled cars.
Porsche will hand out a certificate to owners of affected cars once repairs have been completed, as a means of documenting the work. To make up for the trouble, Porsche will be giving owners an extra year on their new-vehicle warranty, while the 911 GT3 concierge will be reaching out to compensate them for having to park their car for so long.

There's a Porsche Cayman under here somewhere

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

What we have here is the work of Dubai tuner Royal Customs that is controversial even beyond its styling. The Middle East aftermarket house says it spent fourteen months developing a bodykit for the Porsche Cayman, and the results seem to be aimed at those who wish their coupe were a 918 Spyder - the nose, strake-filled and widened rear fender, carbon fiber wing and massive diffuser all cribbing some from Stuttgart's new hybrid supercar.
Even without a buyer, the Alpha One Concept is already controversial. When WorldCarFans posted on the Royal Customs car recently, German tuner Alpha-N Performance wrote in alleging that the Dubai package copies their design from two years ago, which was also called the Alpha One, a design with which it's clear the Dubai Alpha One shares numerous cues. We asked Royal Customs about its relationship to the Alpha One car, we were told, "Yes, there is a lot we can say about the remarkable similarities all of which will be explained by our press release by Mr. Emil from Autogespot. Please wait for the official release and you will have the full exciting story. It's an 'actual success story' and not a 'replication' story."
The response is referring to an "extensive report" on the car coming out of Autogespot. Royal Customs doesn't have the Alpha One Concept on its site yet, so we're still missing quite a few details on it, such as whether the Porsche engine has been given a similarly 918-ish workover. We do know that the company says each car takes 30 days to build and it will only build three of them, which is a number that should satisfy any haters and, even more so, its buyers. You can decide which side of the fence you're on by having a close look at it in the gallery above.
